A fifth-round draft pick in 2017, Donahue got in four games as a rookie before a torn ligament in his elbow required surgery and ended his season. Donahue was playing mostly special teams, but he did register five tackles on defense.

The 25-year-old is the latest Jet to be arrested. Earlier this offseason, wide receiver Robby Anderson was dealt nine charges and three felony counts after a reckless roadway incident of his own in South Florida. It was the second time in as many offseasons Anderson was detained.
